Allen had previously admitted that Johansson is the inspiration for his films, following in the footsteps of actresses and his former lovers Diane Keaton and Mia Farrow.

And Johansson has been involved in the movies that Allen has been making, Match Point in 2005, Scoop in 2006 and the forthcoming Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

But even after making the movies together, the Lost In Translation star denies that she has become Allen's muse, insisting that they only work together to "have fun".

"I'm not his muse. Every single junket that we've done so far (for Vicky Cristina Barcelona), we always get the muse thing and we always say no, it's not that way," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

"Woody and I both appreciate how wonderful it is to work with your friends, and it's fun and we always have a great time when we do it, we entertain each other, we understand each other and we poke each other," she added.
